  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

careful jumping to conclusions ;) the "wall" in this case could just as easily be one we have encountered: Jewish MJs who do not believe that the Law is to be obeyed... and therefore "do not in agreement with the convicting motive that is driving you to conduct the works of the Torah." Note that "they accuse me of doing that because I am Torah Obedient" NOT because he is a gentile. :(

I agree on the point you made however they are still finding reasons to put up a wall of favourtism those who are excepted in their clik or to put it another way unless you think the way we do and agree with our doctrine we do not want you here whereas I am happy to continue fellowship and love for one another regardless of whether they are Torah Obedient or not so the wall is what James describes as judging between the rich and the poor who come into your meetings here sit at my feet to the poor man but to the rich here sit in this nice chair have this position.
I have been guilty of doing this in the past and God showed me my sin so it is easy to see now that I have taken the log out of my own eye.
So I just have to be wait while God deals with them in his timing, and in the mean time I am blessed to be able to bear forth the fruit of patience and perserverance.
Shalom,
Mikhail

Dear brother, this is true of human groupings from middle school cliches to small and large countries - especially of persecuted and beleguered people groups - in the case of persecuted cultures it is the usual circumstance that those from outside are not initially warmly welcomed - particularly those from the persecuting culture - it takes much perseverance, humility and unassuming patience on the part of theose from outside to make even the slightest in roads toward acceptance into such a culture (and rigthtly so) - many of us how have "been at it" for nearly 2 decades humbly recognize that while we are called by the will of HaShem to stand alongside Israel, it may be that she will not be able to fully recognize who we are until we have made the ultimate sacrifice along side her in her hour of peril... that we may then be a tool in the Hand of HaShem that will be part of what eventually causes the veil to lift and for Israel to see her Moshiakh...

I acknowledge this and seek nothing else from her but to be allowed to stand beside her - I do not claim, nor lament that I can not claim, to be a Jewish woman - that is for HaShem to decide perhaps "on the other side" - for from my POV it is not their heart with which G-d has to deal, but ours.....
